    Loose Motor on Como 2.0 UPDATE: Cracked Frame (Vados too)

    They are replacing my 2019 2.0 with a 2020 3.0. Getting the dark blue color. I know there are 2019 3.0s still in stores and it looks like they are still available on Specialized’s site. I wonder if you can ask. They are sending me the new one cuz I’d had the TCD-W system added under warranty and...

    Loose Motor on Como 2.0 UPDATE: Cracked Frame (Vados too)

    Thanks for the note. I sent you a note via PM asking if you might possibly be able to email me a high res picture so I can see the frame crack. I am curious to see what is happening.

    Loose Motor on Como 2.0 UPDATE: Cracked Frame (Vados too)

    I have had no spills at all. I ride mostly paved trails and crushed stone. Some bumps, curb hits, etc. Normal bike stuff. If your frame is cracked as mine is, it’s gotta be under warranty. It’s a structural defect. I haven’t seen the crack, as the dealer was crazy busy when I asked about my bike...

    The good news is: We stand behind our frames—forever. This means we offer a lifetime warranty to the original owner against structural defects in material or workmanship on ALL models of Specialized-branded frames and forks. This includes seatstays and chainstays on full-suspension bikes.

    Loose Motor on Como 2.0 UPDATE: Cracked Frame (Vados too)

    Wow... I had to have my chain replaced a few months ago. I think this may be what caused it. Hopefully, we are the only two and the replacements will be perfect and work forever without issue. Fingers crossed because I REALLY love these bikes. Good luck tomorrow. Where are you located?

    Loose Motor on Como 2.0 UPDATE: Cracked Frame (Vados too)

    Heard from the dealer. Turns out - the frame on my Como 2.0 is cracked, which was causing the motor to move. I don't really ride hard - just the paved trails through the forest preserves of the Chicago's western suburbs. So, he's shooting for a new replacement bike for me - trying to get one...

    Loose Motor on Como 2.0 UPDATE: Cracked Frame (Vados too)

    I've been experiencing some noisy creaks from my crank area for the past couple of months. It's been varied in terms of the noises. At one point, I went to my LBD and had him ride it. He said it needed new bottom bracket bearings but it wasn't a big deal. So, I figured, I'll keep riding until...

    Does anyone know if there's any extra cable for the controller hidden in the frame? I'd love to add a riser to get the bars higher, but can't unless there is more cable available.

    We did. We bought the +2 at the bike store. I've managed to get the bike shifting about as smoothly as it can.

    Yep. I was referring to Mtl_Biker referencing his/her RideControl EVO display.

    On the LaFree bikes, it's RideControl One which has no LCD/LED display. Just a controller with lights that indicate level of assist and battery status.

    I see, so the bike generates some of the ride data, ”uploads” it to the phone which stores it with the maps and gps data that it provides, then saves it. So while the phone can see the data the bike is providing, it’s not until it’s saved to the phone that it actually moves the data to the phone?

    I was just wondering about the “upload” failing when saving. What Is being uploaded to where?

    “Failure to upload”. Perhaps the app doesn’t store the rides locally? Did you have to create an account for your profile? Is there a place to see your rides online?

    We will experiment with it this weekend and see if those settings inform the AUTO setting.

    I hope they provide a way to establish thresholds. I don't like too much assist when starting out. It'd be great if you could establish a min/max range that it operates between. Specialized does this on my Como, so I have a 35% min and 55% max and that seems very comfy for me. I have two other...

    I don't think it does. It seems to kick into heavy duty assist right away, though I haven't tried it enough to know for sure whether it dials way back when you don't need it as much.
